hours trump has suffered a legal setback in a different case. the one regarding the materials seized from his florida beach club. an appeals court has ruled that the justice department can have access to roughly 100 highly simplified classified documents that were taken from mar-a-lago. trump has been arguing that all the documents seized from his club or his personal property, and that if the fbi found anything classified in there, well, trump magically declassified it when he was president even though he has no record of ever having done that. trump got a lower court judge aileen cannon who he appointed to agree that a special master should go through all the documents. and in a ruling that was widely ridiculed, kenneth said while the special master s going through all of those documents, the justice department is not allowed to look at the classified documents, or to use them in a criminal investigation into trump having the documents at his beach club in the first place.
